Sypnosis:When they were at uni, Owen always had a bit of a crush on Nathan. But Nathan was apparently straight, and Owen was too busy with other guys to take his crush seriously.

When Nathan moves back to Bristol after a year away, Owen hears that Nathan has come out of the closet, and he propositions him. Nathan doesn’t want to be just another notch on Owen’s bedpost, though, so he challenges Owen to prove he can be serious: five dates before they have sex.

Owen doesn’t think that sounds too difficult. He’s expecting Nathan to find his charms irresistible anyway. But as they grow closer, Owen begins to care more about proving himself to Nathan than he does about getting him into bed.

Thoughts: Maybe it's just me but everything just seems so skimmable lately in my MM reads. ugh.
The five dates and no sex part was "edging" but not even good edging. No slowburn, I didn't care for the plot, seems they met and began out of nowhere unless I just wasn't paying attention which says alot.
